Effects for Si oxidation mechanisms by carbon atoms in the SiO$$_{2}$$/Si(001) interface

Hozumi, Hideaki*; Ogawa, Shuichi*; Yoshigoe, Akitaka ; Ishizuka, Shinji*; Teraoka, Yuden; Takakuwa, Yuji*

The oxidation kinetics of Si$$_{1-x}$$C$$_{x}$$ layer prepared with C$$_{2}$$H$$_{4}$$ exposure was observed by real-time XPS to investigate effects of substrate stress due to displacement of hetero atom on a p-type Si(001) surface. Experiments were performed using the surface reaction analysis apparatus placed at the BL23SU of SPring-8. Oxidation rate on the Si$$_{1-x}$$C$$_{x}$$ layer was larger than that of a clean surface. It was found that carbon atoms diffused into substrate without CO or CO$$_{2}$$ desorption during oxidation. Furthermore "an unified Si oxidation reaction model mediated by point defect generation" could explain these results with correlation.
